Follow the on-screen prompts and keep the tracker and mobile device near each other.
Recently, Fitbit acquired smartwatch maker Pebble for an estimated $40 million. This way, Fitbit acquired Pebble's smartwatch OS and apps and valuable software engineers and testers. The company promised that all elements such as firmware, apps, app store, Timeline API's, and others will continue to work as intended throughout 2017, and possibly 2018. The development team will also adjust mobile apps so they can function without the need for cloud services.source: Fitbit
